Mathematics
Students at GWCS learn math using the Go Math program.
I will start off the year helping students become more fluent with their multiplication tables because it will help them immensely when working with fractions throughout the year. This is not a part of the Go Math program, but I feel like it builds multiplication fluency which helps them become more fluent when working with division, factors, multiples, and eventually fractions.
The following units will be covered this year with the Go Math program:
Place Value & Multiplication (intro Algebra)
Division
Add & Subtract Decimals
Multiply Decimals
Divide Decimals
Add & Subtract Fractions
Multiply Fractions
Divide Fractions
Algebra: Patterns & Graphing
Convert Units of Measurement
Geometry & Volume
